Halo: Master Chief Collection developer 343 Industries has teased the sci-fi shooter collection might be heading to "a place and way to play" soon.

Interestingly, the clue was secreted way down the latest Halo Waypoint (thanks, VG24/7), in amongst a broader discussion about upcoming flights – the term given to public and closed tests – which promised that the team had "quite a bit of new content [it is] looking to get into your hands, but [it is] deciding what the right amount is and are still waiting to see what progress is made in the coming weeks".

Right at the bottom of the Flighting Future section, however, where the team details upcoming changes like FOV slider support, additional keybindings, customizable controls, and mouse and keyboard support for consoles, the final point teased: "and maybe a new place and way to play".

ICYMI, the Halo Infinite development team has revealed that all the game's "sandbox content" for launch is already in the game and being played daily.

A recent post also shared on the Halo Waypoint blog highlighted the work that Halo Infinite's sandbox team is doing around vehicles, weapons, abilities, and more. Lead sandbox designer Quinn DelHoyo reveals that "all of our launch content is in-game and being played daily".

"The game’s sandbox refers to all of the vehicles, equipment, weapons, and objects that the player will interact with," the designer explained. "The sandbox also includes all of the player systems and 'verbs' like jump, run, health values, shield recharge times, etc."
